What Causes Weakening In My Urine Stream With Pain In Genital Area?

i am a 36 year old male (pretty healty, 225lbs, 6'5") and have noticied a meaningful weaking in my urine stream over the last couple of years. this has been followed by some wave like changes in my fingernails and occassional aching in my genital area. I have been tested for stds and those have come back clean, wondering if I have some kidney/bladder related issue that wouldn't show up in a simple urine test.

Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for query .

Weakening of urinary stream is basically due to narrowing of urinary passage (Stricture Urethra) and not due to any kidney or bladder problem .

Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical
examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen and pelvis
3) Radiological test of Retrograde Cystourethrogram .

Further treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.
